The short answer
No fee is published on this page, and a scar plan cannot be costed before examination. Tethering, depth and pigment risk all need to be seen in person.
A written, itemised quote follows the examination, never the other way round. The consultation can end with no treatment advised. The device brand is not a factor in itself, because the fee follows the plan.
Five factors that set the fee
Scar type and usual approach
| Scar type | Usual approach |
|---|---|
| Ice-pick pits | TCA CROSS, often before other steps |
| Boxcars | FSX Laser or S3, chosen by depth |
| Tethered rolling scars | Subcision first, then resurfacing |
| Raised scars | Intralesional injection or laser |
| Isolated deep scar | May need a punch technique, by referral to a plastic surgery specialist, costed by that team |
What an acne scar treatment quote in Singapore includes
Treatment and zones in plain language, the device or product, and the consumables.
Whether methods are combined, and why.
The review after each stage, and what it assesses.
What is not covered, including any referral.
What it cannot do
No plan can give a fee from photographs, promise a fixed number of sessions at the start, or promise an outcome. Collagen remodels gradually, and the plan adjusts to your response. Energy alone fails on tethered scars. RF microneedling with Secret RF or Secret DUO may be staged, but it does not release a tether either. Marked, widespread scarring beyond what release and resurfacing can improve is referred to a plastic surgery specialist.
Who should wait, and the risks
Active acne may need controlling first, as new lesions create new scars. Infection, a keloid tendency, unreviewed isotretinoin use, a bleeding tendency and pregnancy also defer scar work.
In Fitzpatrick III to V skin, darkening is the main laser risk, so S3 pacing follows the skin's response. Early pigment change is managed at review.
Redness, crusting and a recovery needing care follow CO2. TCA CROSS crusts for about a week.
Bruising, swelling and tenderness settle over days. Uncommonly, a small lump forms where blood collects.
Comparing written quotes
Compare the scar types treated, the methods, the area, who performs each step, and the reviews and aftercare included. Ask especially how tethered scars will be released.
Consultation terms
The consultation carries its own fee, stated at booking. It does not oblige treatment. Plans are individual, not fixed packages. Stages are named in the plan, and each review decides whether the next stage proceeds, is adjusted or waits. Waiting, or no treatment, may be the advice you receive. Please contact the clinic to arrange an examination.
